Triggered email campaigns vs traditional email

"Triggered emails" is an alternative way of described them which EmailMonks uses on this infographic on 'triggered email marketing campaigns'. It clearly shows the value of this technique and how, with access to the right CRM system or email service provider, campaigns can be set-up; whether it's based on an action, event, demographics or other criteria.

Companies now have more information available to personally react in 'real time' or at timely relevant touchpoints, to engage/convert and at times 'save a sale'. Relevance helps lift open rates for trigger emails such that they can often be the most important emails you send, so ripe for optimisation:

'Autoresponder open rates are 4x higher than generic emails, and triggered emails have 152% higher open rates than traditional emails'.

EmailMonks highlight the challenges and opportunities, tips and best practice, how to select an email provider, automation workflows for planning, the future of triggered email campaigns as well as sector information to support the planning and execution.
